Although researchers have found evidence in some breeds that temperature can affect the sexual outcome of the chick, normally that is a situation with reptiles, because reptile eggs are deposited in soil. Chicken eggs incubate under a broody hen, or in an electrically controlled compartment, at a steady 100F. Therefore, what determines the sex of a baby chick is its genetics, not the temperature of an incubator.
